Chytil (concussion) practiced in a regular jersey on Friday but is without a timeline to return.

Chytil suffered a setback in his initial attempt to return from an upper-body injury in late January after going down at practice and was ruled out for the remainder of the 2023-24 season. There is no confirmation whether this initial prognosis has adjusted. Chytil was a major component of the Rangers offence, scoring 22 goals and 45 points as a 23-year-old in 2022-23.

Chytil (upper body) will miss the remainder of the 2023-24 season after experiencing a recent setback.

Chytil scarily went down earlier in the week in the first skate upon his return from an upper-body injury and has announced through social media Sunday that he is going to miss the remainder of the 2023-24 season. The 24-year-old's announcement comes as a big disappointment after he produced a 22 goal, 45 point season as a 23-year-old in 2022-23.

Chytil (concussion) has suffered a setback directly related to his previous injury at practice Friday after attempting to return.

Chytil has been limited to 10 games this season, last playing on November 2nd when he exited the game with a concussion. Before his injury, Chytil was playing almost exclusively on a line with Artemi Panarin and Alexis Lafreniere. His most recent setback is devasting news as he was seemingly making progress towards a return.

Filip Chytil (upper body) has been placed on the long-term injured reserve retroactive to November 3rd.

Chytil has been placed on long-term injured reserve, retroactive to November 3rd, in a series of moves by the Rangers designed to create cap space for Adam Fox to return to the lineup on Wednesday. The 24-year-old Chytil was previously centring the Rangers' second line and had six assists, 22 SOG, and four PIMs in 10 games prior to the injury.

Filip Chytil (upper body) has been placed on the injured reserve.

Chytil left the Rangers' previous game vs. Carolina after just 10:23 TOI due to an upper-body injury and was placed on the injured reserve Friday. The 24-year-old's injury leaves a big hole in the Rangers lineup as he had been centring their second line and had six assists, 22 SOG, and four PIMs in 10 games prior to the injury.

Filip Chytil will play Tuesday vs. the Penguins (upper body).

Chytil left the Rangers' previous contest vs. Chicago after just 4:48 TOI due to an upper-body injury but still managed to pick up a goal and an assist with two SOG in his limited time. There was a chance he would be forced to miss Tuesday, but he announced in the morning that he is "good to go" and will play vs. Pittsburgh.

Chytil (upper-body) is questionable to play Monday in Pittsburgh.

Chytil collected one goal and one assist in 4:48 TOI before exiting Sunday's game in Chicago with an upper-body injury. After Chytil left, Barclay Goodrow moved to centre, and Vitaly Kravtsov moved up the lineup, look for that to remain if he can't go Tuesday.

Filip Chytil is expected to return to the lineup on Wednesday (lower body)

Chytil missed the Rangers' previous two contests due to a lower-body injury but is expected to return Wednesday. It will be a welcome return for the 23-year-old, who has four goals, 11 points and is a +6 with 30 SOG through 19 GP this season.

Chytil (upper-body) is not expected to play Saturday in Boston.

Chytil suffered an upper-body injury against the Islanders on Thursday and is not expected to play Saturday in Boston. With both Chytil and Andrew Copp (lower-body) not likely to be available, look for two of Jonny Brodzinski, Greg McKegg and/or Julien Gauthier to draw into the lineup.
